berk.kp Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Not sure if it is possible, but would be nice to have the possibility to add this kind of big sand filter which most arab air forces have. http://img.wp.scn.ru/camms/ar/40/pics/118_1_b1.png P.s. would be nice to see this livery with it :)
lmp Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Your picture shows a Mi-8T which didn't have the PZU dust protection devices our version has. Were those large filters used on versions which had PZUs?
AlphaOneSix Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Yes. Maybe not those specific types, however.In the U.S., a company I've worked with uses filters similar to those (specifically: http://www.pall.com/main/aerospace-defense-marine/product.page?id=53117) in place of the PZUs. The PZUs are roughly 70% effective, while the larger filters are quite a bit more effective than that (though I don't have actual numbers). EDIT: I'm not personally a fan because it means I can't use the hatch to get on top of the aircraft for routine maintenance.
lmp Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Interesting, never seen those before. Thanks for the info! I'm not going to say no to having another thing I can put on my favourite helo, though as of now it wouldn't be very useful.
berk.kp Posted December 11, 2016 Author Posted December 11, 2016 Wether useful or not, would be nice to see those kind of details added to the model, which is already very detailed :)
